Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a thermosensitive polymer capable of forming heat-reversible gels with a high viscosity index and their preparation. It also relates to applications of these gels.
  • thermoreversible gels include, but are not limited to, therapeutic or non-therapeutic compositions, in particular cosmetic compositions, for the treatment of the human or animal body.
  • Reversible gelling compositions are defined as solutions whose variation in viscosity is related to a change in environmental conditions. When this change in viscosity occurs during a change in temperature, it will be called thermoreversible gels and the constituent polymers of the formulation are identified as “thermo-gelling polymers” or “thermosensitive polymers”. These polymers are formed of hydrophobic parts, heat-sensitive, and hydrophilic parts. The gel formation is explained by the self-association of the thermosensitive portions in hydrophobic micro-domains; the entire polymer being kept in solution by the hydrophilic segments. The viscosification properties and those of the gel are then controlled by the respective length of the different segments and by the hydrophobic / hydrophilic ratio ( LE Bromberg, Adv. Drug Delivery Reviews 31 (1998) 197-221 ).
  • thermosensitive polymers are known for forming thermoreversible gels in aqueous solution, the viscosity of said gels reversibly evolving as a function of their temperature.
  • thermosensitive polymers have hydrophobic portions capable of aggregating together to form micelles when the temperature of the medium is high to reach that of their critical solution temperature; the hydrophilic portions interconnecting said micelles. In this way, an increase in the temperature of the aqueous medium in which these heat-sensitive polymers are dissolved is capable of transforming it from a liquid state to a viscous gel state.
  • Such polymers are well known by the generic name of poloxamer. They are block copolymers of propylene oxide and ethylene oxide, or polyoxyalkylenes, which can be synthesized in particular according to the processes described in the patents US 4,188,373 and US 4,478,822 .
  • the heat-sensitive polymers thus obtained make it possible to formulate aqueous compositions having critical solution temperatures of between 24 and 40 ° C.
  • such formulations necessarily contain from 15 to 50% heat-sensitive polymers to obtain a significant variation in viscosity so that they are initially extremely viscous.
  • thermogelling polymer poly(ethylene glycol)
  • Carbopol polycarboxylic acids
  • segments of polyacrylic acids have been chemically associated with poloxamer segments.
  • the acrylic polyacid portion gives the material a greater solubility in water.
  • the presence of the hygrophilic segment promotes the solubilization of the copolymer and thus limits the phase separation. It appears that alternating copolymers of sensitive thermo- and pH-monomers quickly lose their thermo-gelling property as the level of pH-sensitive monomer increases; block copolymers are preferred.
  • thermosensitive component of the material is provided by Pluronics® polymers or poly (isopropylacrylamide) (NIPAm).
  • Pluronics® polymers or poly (isopropylacrylamide) (NIPAm) poly (isopropylacrylamide)
  • the copolymerization is carried out either by condensation reaction of the acid functions of the PAA with the modified reactive end of the Pluronic (monoamination of the hydroxy ends).
  • the Pluronic-g-poly (acrylic acid) copolymer has heat-sensitive grafts. condensation reaction between the polyacrylic acid and the poly (isopropylacrylamide), both of which are modified at one end by inter-condensable functions (amine and acid) - the Pluronic-b-poly copolymer (NIPAm) is formed by two chemically bonded blocks.
  • thermoreversible gelation of the Hoffman copolymers ( WO95 / 24430 ) is obtained with compositions of lower polymer concentrations: the formulations containing from 1 to 3% by weight of copolymer have a well-defined critical gelification temperature range, between 20 ° C and 40 ° C, for a pH range from from 4 to 8.
  • critical gelification temperature range between 20 ° C and 40 ° C
  • pH range from from 4 to 8.
  • the variation in viscosity for these compositions does not reach a decade and a phase separation in micro-domains is observed at the critical gelling temperature, which results in a opacification of the medium.
  • the syntheses are carried out in several steps: controlled modification of the terminal functions of the polymers used, condensation or copolymerization in the chain and finally separation / purification of the desired products.
  • Smart Hydrogels TM has perfect clarity before and at the point of gelation; the sol-gel transition of low concentration aqueous solutions of copolymers (1 to 5% by weight) occurs in a narrow range of temperature (10 ° C), between 25 and 40 ° C and results in a viscosity increase of approximately at least 30 times the initial viscosity.
  • the gel thus formed behaves like a viscoelastic solid and retains its viscosity regardless of the applied shear rate.
  • the bioadhesiveness of the hydrogel is limited by poor accessibility of the poly (acrylic acid) parts and the compositions have a reduced stability due to the initial oxidation of the Pluronic® polymer to create the priming radical.
  • Bromberg et al have developed novel linear block copolymers by keeping poloxamer and polyacrylic acid respectively as thermosensitive and hydrophilic compounds.
  • the originality of these copolymers is that they are composed of a central block of poloxamer modified at both ends by polyacid blocks.
  • the two ends of the poloxamer are previously functionalized with acrylic or thiol groups allowing the initiation of the radical polymerization of the acid.
  • acrylic These triblocks show a reversible gelling at body temperature (25-40 ° C.) at pH values between 3 and 13.
  • the weakly concentrated solutions (1 to 4% by weight) then undergo a viscosity increase of up to 2%. decades.
  • the synthesis route chosen is multi-stage and it is necessary to eliminate, in course or for manufacturing purposes, the residual monomers by important treatments (extraction with soxlet, dialysis, multiple precipitations ).
